I find this recently renamed pub's name to be a potential cause of confusion. There was a very long standing pub of the same name on Bride Street, which was demolished for apartments in 1999 - and has not, as yet, been redeveloped. Additionally, there was a pub of this name in the successful Dublin-set RTE series Love/Hate.
The operators of this premises have settled on this name regardless of, or possibly even due to, these other pubs - fictional and former.
This was until recently Marcels restaurant and bar (the bar being briefly called Chambers), but the entire site is now Napper Tandys. It is still operating primarily as a food venue, with those there solely to drink directed towards bar seating rather than the tables. Its OK as a bar but suspect it could get extremely crowded if they maintain the seating rules.
